Bulldogged: Bowie State knocks off top seeded Virginia Union

CHARLOTTE– It is hard to beat one team three times in a year, and Bowie State showed why by beating Virginia Union 84-78 in the quarterfinals of the CIAA Tournament.

Omari George was a scoring machine in this game. The sophomore guard had 24 points, five rebounds, and one assist for BSU. He shot 69 percent from the field and 75 percent on his free throw attempts. The CIAA Player of the Year, Ray Anderson, did his best to keep the Panthers in the game late but it was not enough. Anderson ended with 23 points, six rebounds and three assists in the last CIAA Tournament of his career.
